Sorry about the hijack but re the Salsa Cowbell bars, is there enough of a flare to give extra control off road or would you recommend stepping up to the cowchipper for that? I'll probably end up...

Hmmmmm, I'd say step up to the wood chipper if you are riding more off, the cowbell is a gentle flare which is more noticeable looking straight on at the bike, the main plus point for me is the width...

The black ones are plated brass that's been blackened so shouldn't corrode like alloy can with alloy nipples it's ok as long as there built right and kept clean.

Thanks xyeti, what about the cowchipper which is somewhere between the Cowbell and woodchipoer? Supposed to be closer the the Cowbell so might be pretty spot on. Roadies worrying about your bars? Who'd...

I've got the Thomson bars on my roadie and on my new CX bike (Spesh Crux). Both are nicely made and soak up road and trail buzz. If they're any better than the likes of Easton or Enve I couldn't say...

Thanks xyeti, won't be getting then for a while if I do. Would really like a carbon option for the flared bars but can't seem to find any.

I know, I had the same problem, that's how I ended up with these, if it were a Santa Cruz Stigmata or some other exotic Carbon Fibre steed I'd have put carbon bars straight on there. I couldn't see the...
